The Last

It feels like just yesterday we started blogging and I was a dead end because I did not know what to write about. Well today is our last time blogging and I am still don’t know what to write about, I guess some things never change ;) I still cannot wrap my head around the idea that high school is over! I will never sit in the computer lab with my English class trying to figure out what to blog about…this is the last time haha I get very sentimental when I think about the end because I’ve been with some of my classmates for about twelve or thirteen years! Even the people that have come in at different grades fit right in and it feels as if they’ve been with me for this entire chapter of my life. Although we are not all super super close I think we still care for each other. I am so lucky to be able to say that I love my classmates, yeah we may get on each other’s nerves, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

            We have that bond of growing up together, we have different friend groups, but regardless we have seen each other grow up. It is so weird to look back at how things were at the beginning of Freshman Year. When we walked through those doors the first day of school before us lay the challenge of being in high school and trying to semi figure out who we were. Now we face a bigger challenge, going out into the world and having the courage to be ourselves. Some of us might have and idea of the person we are, but being out in the “real world” will most likely change that. We are going to encounter different stations that we were not expose to here at St. Joes. Quite frankly that is kind of scary…the part that gets to me is that we are not going to be together to once again expand our knowledge and grow.    

            If you are reading this, I want you to know that I am thankful that you were part of my high school experience. Whether we were close or not, thank you and just know that you have made an impact on me and who I am. I have learned something from each one of you guys. Thank you for teaching me how to be fearless, determined, hard working, open minded, and most importantly thank you for helping me find who I am. Good luck in all of your future endeavors. I hope you never forget the awesome high school memories that were made on this beautiful campus.
           Thank you Mr. Wood for everything, you're an awesome teacher and a great role model :)
